DEVICE FOR CONNECTING AN INTERMEDIATE SHAFT TO A PINION OF A STEERING MECHANISM

摘要

The invention relates to a clamping piece (1) which is used to connect an intermediate shaft to a pinion shaft (8) of a steering mechanism of a motor vehicle. Said clamping piece comprises two lateral elements (2, 3) which are embodied in such a manner that the pinion shaft (8) can be received therebetween by clamping by means of a clamping screw (14). Said clamping screw comprises a pressure element (18) which comprises a protruding pressure section (24) and which is mounted in a displaceable manner on the clamping screw (14) counter to the friction force.
